Highway Commission Letter
May 24, 196? Honorable Daniel M. Pierce Representative, State of Illinois 1923 Lake Avenue HighUnd Park, Illinois
Dear Mr. Pierce:
Thank you for yoUf recent in¬ quiry regarding an interchange at Route 47 on the Northwest Toll- way.
We have bad nunterous requeata to construct an intarchaBf* at Route 47, and also at other loca¬ tions along the NorthwMt 'Toll- way. We realise the econftftic de¬ velopment of many potentially prosperous communities depends on convenient access to modem, fast.speed, safe highways.
Our first step in the overall pic¬ ture is to dlficonUnue our ticket system on the Northwest ToUway from Elgb\ to the! )Wi5con»in State line. We would place highway bar¬ riers and coin collection stations at respective intervals along this route.
A feasibility study of the pro¬ posed new system, including spe. cific recommendations for new east and westbound interchanges is now under stndy. This, of coarse, would include the Route 47 intardiange.
I win keep you infonned of any future developments en this mat¬ ter.
Sincercjlr, B. Bonniwell
